• Manage external vendors and provide detailed strategic guidance on study design and execution

• Contribute to the development of global strategies and tactics as related to HEOR and the broader IBU

• Support knowledge translation activities including scientific publications, presentations, and dashboards/tool for internal and external use

• Manage project timelines and budgets

• Communicate key insights to internal audiences, including cross-functional teams

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure alignment on HEOR strategy
